Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take.
God bless Mommy, Daddy, Janae, Preston…
Remember that poem?
I am repeating it now
Because I need sleep
Phones ringing
Deliveries made
Restless mind wondering
Al came home tonight
Tremors followed
Tears right behind
Dear Lord
Please let me
Lay down to sleep
If you want to take my soul
Then please do it while
My eyes are closed
Just do me one favor God
Take care of Al for me.

Have peace precious you are safe. Those who have always been are always with you in your place.
Have peace, lay down, close your eyes and sleep. Those who have always been hold you in their keep … Just sleep.

He’s not going to take you Terry. Your time on this planet isn’t done yet.
Just try and sleep the sleep of oblivion and wake up refreshed. I’ll keep you in my mind.

For Terry- A Dear Friend
Sleep if you must my friend
There’s so much more to mend
Wake up if you must get erect
There’s so much more to correct
Sleep if you must my friend
And do your chores to blend
While others may not have noticed
You keep moving as you are enticed
Sleep if you must my friend
Everything has its start and end
And God knows when it’s forthright
He always makes everything right
